Word from the police department re. ceived this morning is to the effect that James Cahill was released from there February 9... Consequently he could not have been dead for more than five days. The body was interred as a sani- tary measure within a very short time from the period of finding it. Testimony later obtainea was to the effect that Cahill had some time prev. ious. suffered permanent injury to his spine when a horse fell on him dur- ing the grading of the Glenrock road in 1921. He had been’ forced to wear @ cast for some time since. It is said that his injury had made him some- what morbid and melancholy.
